Planking 1

Here's the first piece of plywood sides attached to the boat. Used PU glue with small pieces of glass fibre. SS screws at ~70mm intervals. The end is ready for the next piece with a scarf joint.

Whoooo! Finally back to work!

Yesterday spent 2+ hours drippin sweat on my boat. Began sanding the frames/chines/clamps to accomodate the plywood planking. The aft port side is practically ready for planking.
Also cut and predrilled the aft sides - 2 copies for both sides, hope the other side matches later ;)
Feels very good. If everything goes as planned, will spend there a few hours tonight, too.
